Using simulations based on a mathematical model of polymer dynamics, they found that under these conditions two distinct mechanisms of length regulation come into play. (sciencedaily.com)
Yet, the universal occurrence of forgetting throughout the animal kingdom suggests that it serves critical adaptive functions, driven by distinct mechanisms. (cogneurosociety.org)
They also show that while the two proteins act through distinct mechanisms in the formation of new neurons — which send, receive and process information in the brain — they also share some duties. (sciencedaily.com)
